Best Seasonal Restaurants in Clifton

Really, everything was perfect. We could not fault a thing. Cocktails, wine, each course, and delightful people. Such a pleasure to go there, and so lucky to have this in Cincinnati. Thank you Boca.

Made us feel welcome and checked on us but let us relax and enjoy our night.

My girlfriends and I ,instead of buying presents, go out every year for a really great dinner for Christmas. This restaurant really hits all the buttons. From melt in your mouth steak, fresh sushi and succulent lobster tails. Wait staff was excellent. Great vibe. Would definitely recommend this iconic restaurant.

My wife and I dined here for the first time ever. We went in with big expectations due to the reviews and national acclaim. We were absolutely not disappointed. The food was incredibly delicious, with levels of rich flavor. Steak was perfectly cooked and the additional add on Mac and Cheese was exceptional. If you're going to the Precinct, you have to get a steak and they do NOT disappoint. Alec and Lizzie attended to us and did an exceptional job. They both were warm, quick and inviting. This was my birthday and Alec made us feel seen and appreciated in a way I don't feel any restaurant ever has. Anytime our glass of water would get remotely low, Lizzie was there to fill. Both of them provided incredible service, each with a glowing smile on their face and made the entire experience feel just that - an experience. I went in with mild anxiety that it wouldn't be up to the lofty standards I had built it to be, but The Precinct blew that away.

We had a very nice anniversary dinner at Aperture. This was our first visit. The dining room is very open and “modern”. It is fortunately not a noisy environment. We were seated right next to the open kitchen which was fun. Now to the food: we like a restaurant with a limited menu. Better a few great dishes than many mediocre dishes. Aperture has a fairly small menu and it turned out they did them all well. The hummus sampler was outstanding with sone great grilled pita to accompany the hummus. The second section of the menu may be the best. Both carrots (not to be missed) and Hamachi Collar were exceptional. My wife really liked having a vegetable forward dish like the carrots a star on the menu. Our shared pasta was ok but not exceptional. A bit salty for my wife. We didn’t try the more “protein forward” dishes. Desert was limited but really good. We had saved space for the desert which was smart as both offerings were quite filling. A place to return to for sure
